The rest of wednesday...

Awesome as the hypnobirthing class is, it's also in Apgujeong, which is 2 hours away by subway. As such, we decided to see about trying out the bus and/or train in hopes of speeding the whole process up. The process was not sped up...maybe in the future it will be since we won't be checking this and that and wondering where exactly we need to go, but in the mean time it sucked. It was worth it though since I got to see the baby for the first time on the ultrasound. It was an amazing moment getting to see our baby for the first time. As Caroline said I smiled a lot. I also came pretty close to tears.

After we decided to go check out this area nearby that supposedly had some pretty sweet food options. Supposedly is the key word here. I suppose they may actually exist and we simply managed to find none of them. We walked up and down hills tried a couple subway stops and it all came to nothing. Though we did see a mouse come out of the subway and scare a Korean woman half to death. That was kind of funny. Eventually we just hopped in a cab and managed to explain to the driver that according to our map a T.G.I Fridays was just up the block. We arrived and ordered. Our drinks came out with our food cause that's often how it goes around here. Both of us were very hungry so conversation was light. After we ate though all was well. We then hopped into another cab and got back to the clinic for the hypnobirthing class. For more on this see Caroline's post.

Getting home was another ordeal. We were essentially catching the last trains of the night. No buses were available. Our final train didn't actually take us to Osan. We had to catch a cab. The cab had some others in it who were also going to Osan. That was cool. One lady spoke good English and had zero accent. That was really cool in fact. However when we got out the cab driver cheated us. I handed him 15,000 won for a 12,000 fare and he switched the ten for a one once I handed it to him. I hadn't been paying that much attention and assumed I had accidentally handed him a 1,000 instead of a 10,000. I gave him the money and moved cause really I just wanted to be home at that point. Caroline is 100% sure I handed him a ten though. So that's pretty upsetting. It was about 1 in the morning at that point and for two who usually turn into pumpkins around 10, sleep was a welcome friend.
